I feel the trend is positive. With energy costs or we can say that energy bill reaching new highs, we must be proactive and voluntary. Not only should reduce the amount of energy bill we use, but also to conserve energy we do. And for nearly 15-20% of all the original energy is lost through windows and doors, energy rating windows and energy rating doors and energy saving products in your home should be a priority.

Unplug the charger from the electrical outlet used. You can also limit fuel consumption short walk or bike. This can also be good for our health.

Having a green home, we can save more by paying too much on your reduce energy bills and reduce some of our shopping list. We can begin to do so by retaining hot water. Water is one of the most widely used in households. Everyone of water supply in the world is shrinking at an alarming rate. We can do our part to keep using our bath water to flush toilets or irrigate gardens. This is called grey water. You must create a special tube for your washing machine to save the water for the garden with make a use of solar panels. We may also collect rain water and boil it, so we have more water for drinking and cooking.
